In the early hours of the morning of 26 April 1986, the nuclear
reactor at the Chernobyl power plant in Ukraine exploded, unleashing a
storm of radioactive material into the atmosphere and contaminating most
of Europe with its fallout. It was a disaster on an unprecedented
scale.

This is a story of hubris, heroism and tragedy as
engineers, firefighters, doctors and government officials all worked to
contain the fiasco.

In this volume, Ian Fitzgerald reveals the
details of how the accident occurred, the desperate response to the
situation and the investigation and recriminations that followed. He
asks what lessons can be learned - and what, if anything, we are doing
to make sure they can never happen again.
